• Notable .plan update from joshua (posted 2002-05-21 01:30:08 by fingermaster):
  joshua updated his .plan file at 2002-05-20 01:21:22 with the following info:

  I am in the process of deciding what the heck to do with
  firebutton.org. It has been up for practically a year now and has a
  working news system minus comments which I think is kinda boring. I post
  news to it occasionally, nobody probably reads it and it just isn't what
  I wanted it for. I also don't have anyone helping me with it. On the off
  chance that you get to read this, I really need somebody who would be
  interested in the project. The site is generally a retro-centric gaming
  site, and I wanted it to originally be a community site that talks about
  this kinda stuff and _not_ another emulation site. But now I think the
  topic can be a bit broader. It would be what I guess you could call
  "alternative gaming." An alternative to "retro" site that post just about
  emulation. An alternative to other gaming sites that focus on what all the
  other gaming sites are focusing on. I want to cover the weird, eccentric
  and just plain odd. The GBA stuff has been an obsession of mine also and I
  think it fits in, but I would like to make it a bit more general and cover
  other portables too.
  
  Another thing I would like to do is to have editorial pieces that are more
  of a broader view of whats going on in the gaming scene, observations of
  the culture and the like. It really is open and could be fun if anyone has
  any ideas and wants to write something up, please email me here or
  joshua@firebutton.org.
  
  The reason why I am talking about this here is because I am also thinking
  of possibly moving firebutton to icculus.org. Its not that I dont
  appreciate the fact that my current host has hosted the site without
  charge for so long and helped set up the different php apps that we have
  used but having it at icculus.org would give me more control. I would have
  a shell account and could make quite edits a _lot_
  
  Ok, I think I am done going on now. I just wanted to get this all out
  somewhere and if somebody is interested in helping out with writing,
  ideas, coding feel free to contact me.
